Top of the big era

As we enter May, everything feels a lot easier, and even the weather has gotten a lot better.

There is just one thing that is a pity.

Manchester United lost in the Champions League semi-finals to Bayern Munich. Fortunately, the team successfully won the FA Cup and avoided losing everything.

With a championship guaranteed, the pressure on the team will not be so great.

Zhou Buqiren held an online board meeting in New York, officially appointed Dan Schulman as PayPal's CEO, and joined the board of directors as executive director.

There is no need to make financial compensation to American Express.

Schulman was paid a $10 million signing fee to adjust his job, change his career plans, and move from the West Coast to the East Coast.

Between the CEO’s entry and exit, PayPal made a net profit of $50 million!

This has a certain degree of persuasion for investment banks.

Several of PayPal's directors live in New York and have deep connections here. Coupled with the relationship between Zhou Buqi and Dan Schulman, as well as the "profit" of US$50 million, they finally convinced several major underwriters , will not reduce the expected issuance price.

Everything is in accordance with the previous procedures and plans and remains unchanged!

The controversy over changing the CEO came to an end in just over ten days.

Everything is back to normal.

At this time, Xu Zhuxian and Zheng Xiujing had returned to South Korea after accompanying Boss Zhou for a week. They were replaced by Yang Mi and Dilireya.

Boss Zhou is always surrounded by beauties.

When I went to Hollywood, there were so many beauties.

Ziweixing Universal's superhero blockbuster "Iron Man 3" kicked off the summer season. After 10 days of release, the global box office exceeded US$666 million.

This amazing box office growth rate has broken a series of box office records.

Looking at this momentum, even a global box office of US$1 billion cannot stop it.

The celebration party was also held early on the second weekend of the film's release, at the Hilton Hotel in Hollywood.

Zhou Buqi and his female companion Yang Mi also participated.

Hollywood celebrities gathered.

This is quite an event.

They had no foresight and didn't know what was going on. They only knew that Ziweixing Global, under the leadership of Boss Zhou, had become the largest entertainment giant.

Not just money, but the magic of creation.

He firmly launched the Marvel superhero film series, which completely changed the production logic of Hollywood blockbusters, and more and more comic-book movies began to appear.

Boss Zhou showed up, and many actors came up to say hello to him.

Among them is the ultra-low-cut Scarlett Johansson.

Zhou Buqi said "Wow" and expressed his praise for her figure, but turned a blind eye to her unabashed invitation and seductive eyes.

Not interested at all.

Scarlett retreated in despair.

Yang Mi snickered and said, "She's seducing you!"

Zhou Buqi said: "It's far worse than you!"

"Have you slept with her?"

"this……"

"I feel like there's something wrong with the way she looks at you."

"Yeah?"

Zhou Buqi shook his head.

It's not a cover-up.

He was really unimpressed.

When he first entered Hollywood a few years ago, Boss Zhou liked to attend various parties. People including Katzenberg, Musk, Michael Moore, Kevin Tsujihara and others would invite him to many entertainment parties when they had something to do.

Especially Musk.

Even Musk is fooling around among these women, why can't he?

During that time, Zhou Buqi often rode his Ocean Horse across the land of America.

In addition to black horses of African descent, foreign horses of most ethnic groups have been tried.

That's a sense of freshness.

It's really not interesting.

After playing around, I still think girls from China, Japan and Korea are the best, gentle, well-behaved, and caring little cotton-padded jackets.

As for this Scarlett Johansson...

These foreign horses are all similar, who knows which one they have ridden?

I forgot!

However, Yang Mi understood women very well. She pursed her lips and snickered and said, "I feel like the way she looks at you is like looking at an ungrateful scumbag."

Zhou Buqi glared, "I deserve a beating! When I go home in the evening, I will be punished by kneeling for half an hour, do you hear me?"

"I heard it!"

Yang Mi covered her mouth and snickered.

At this time, Jeffrey Katzenberg came over, holding a glass of red wine, touched Zhou Buqi, and said with a smile: "Today's stock price has increased by 7 US dollars."

"Really?" Zhou Buqi's reaction was relatively dull. "Don't pay too much attention to the stock price. If you get things done, the stock price will naturally rise. What I hate most is the behavior of manipulating the stock price through financial technology. That is harmful to shareholders and the board of directors. , management and every employee."

Katzenberg nodded and said honestly: "These entertainment companies pay more attention to stock prices than movie box office. Well, the most typical one is Viacom. In order to increase the stock price, they asked Paramount to It drastically reduced the number of films it released, and also terminated the contracts of a large number of excellent producers, and even terminated the contract with Tom Cruise."

Zhou Buqi smiled and said, "By the way, it will be Lei Shidong's birthday in a while."

Jason Berger is a good friend of Redstone. Of course he will also participate and asked: "Are you going too?"

Zhou Buqi nodded.

Katzenberg said: "If you go, it's best not to agree to anything and leave as soon as possible."

"Um?"

"There is serious civil strife happening within the Redstone family and Viacom right now. Alas, Redstone was wise for a lifetime, but he is still confused as he gets older."

"What's wrong?"

"He is now living with two young female companions, about the same age as his granddaughter."

Katzenberg shook his head frequently when talking about the absurdity of his friend.

Zhou Buqi smiled and said, "Isn't this great? You will get stronger when you get older."

Katzenberg said: "But he was given by these two female companions...many people suspected that he was mentally controlled by these two women. These two women would always use his credit cards to buy various luxury goods. Product. Do you know what the most ridiculous thing happened some time ago?"

Zhou Buqi asked: "What?"

Katzenberg said: "Redstone sold the family's stock, cashed out more than 200 million US dollars, and then divided it equally between the two female companions. This made his daughter very angry. This birthday party will be held by the family. The members have a rare opportunity to come into contact with Redstone, so they might get into trouble and get their money back."

Zhou Buqi couldn't help laughing, "Can I get back the money I gave away? I don't believe it."

Katzenberg sighed and said helplessly: "The names of his two female companions are Sidney and Manuela. Those methods are really... Lei Shidong is very popular, don't look at these 80 If there are too many, he will get confused easily, but he will not change his problem. Two female companions are not enough, and he usually goes on dates with other women. The two female companions helped him arrange it and invited them to go on dates at his mansion. For this kind of Lei Shidong no longer knew how much money he had spent. One of his granddaughters was a member of a family that he had dismissed long ago and had little money. Once they met, Lei Shidong found out that this granddaughter was living in poverty, so he I signed a check for him for $20,000. But if I go on a date with my lover, I can give her $7 million in one go.”

Yang Mi’s English is pretty good now, and she was dumbfounded when she heard it.

Zhou Buqi breathed a sigh of relief.

Redstone's past experience made him worried about his old age.

But when Katzenberg said this, he felt relieved.

Depend on!

This Redstone is such a scumbag!

This isn't Feng Liu's fault, it's his scumbag nature.

Zhou Buqi said slowly: "Jobs also had a lot of controversies in his life. Some time before his death, I went to visit him. What he said impressed me deeply - the most important thing in a person's life is his family."

Katzenberg really couldn't bear to see this. "When he was young, he had a falling out with his brothers and sisters, then he broke up with his son, and now he also breaks up with his daughter... By the way, I saw it with my own eyes once, it was really It was an eye-opener.”

Zhou Buqi said amusedly: "What's the matter?"

Katzenberg said: "It was the MTV Awards Ceremony, which is owned by Viacom. Redstone also attended. His grandson Brandon also went with his girlfriend. After the awards ceremony, After that, I saw Redstone leaving with his grandson’s girlfriend in his arms.”

After hearing this, Yang Mi felt dizzy and almost fainted.

Zhou Buqi couldn't help but cursed: "Beast! No wonder they broke up!"

Katzenberg's mouth curled up slightly, revealing a bit of mockery, "This grandson has not broken up. Brandon is his most favored grandson. The relationship between grandfather and grandson is good."

"Um?"

"From then on, Brandon would always introduce beautiful girls around to his grandfather."

"Hahaha!" Zhou Buqi took a few deep breaths. This was really a living negative teaching material. He whispered, "Later, you can summarize all these ridiculous romantic histories of Lei Shidong and compile them into materials. I."

"ah?"

Katzenberg was puzzled.

Zhou Buqi coughed and said, "I'll see if there's any possibility of adapting it into a movie."

This is just a cover.

His heart felt cold.

We have to learn lessons from Red Stone and sum up our experience at the same time... The romantic will return to the romantic, but we must not cause such a shocking scene.

Bill Gates is also pretty cool, look at him?

Even Musk!

Zhou Buqi immediately made up his mind. He should really have less contact with these people in the entertainment industry in the future. Redstone is one of them, and Murdoch is also one of them. It sounds scary.

These people are such assholes!

Those who are close to vermilion are red, those who are close to ink are black.

You have to stay away from them!

Boss Zhou is an IT entrepreneur, so he should stay in the technology industry and have less contact with the entertainment industry. He is not from the same group at all.

At this time, Disney head Robert Iger also appeared.

It was not easy for this guy to become the chairman and CEO of Disney. He went through an internal power struggle. In order to oust Michael Eisner and bring him to power, the Disney family even made a compromise and gave up the only remaining director position within Disney.

Robert Iger came on stage, and the Disney family said goodbye to Disney completely.

Seeing how Redstone is messing around, after his media empire is passed down, the family business will only fall apart faster. It doesn’t take three generations to kill it, and it will probably not be able to survive by the generation of his children.

Zhou Buqi walked forward and met Robert Egger.

Mainly, I wanted to talk to him about the copyright of the blind box figures of "Disney Princess" and the copyright of the "Star Wars" theme park.

Not only that, but now that Marvel's superhero movie series is popular all over the world, adding a "Marvel Park" to Disneyland might also be a good choice.
